Montessori Bundle for Ukraine

Lately I've been thinking a lot about the Social Change Ecosystem model. When things are confusing and overwhelming, it's helpful for me to remember that one person cannot fill all the roles needed to navigate a crisis or systemic issue, but I can narrow in on the ways I can help and contribute and start there.

In this model, I most identify with the roles of caregiver and guide. For me, at this point in time, that looks like connecting with organizations that serve children and donating money, providing resources for parents and teachers on talking with children when difficult things happen, and collaborating with my colleagues on relief efforts for children and families. It's not everything, but it helps me to think about that "next right thing."

You may have heard about a recent project organized by Yuliya from Welcome to Mommyhood, the Montessori Bundle to support Ukrainian refugees. She is working on a local initiative in the Netherlands to collect needed resources for refugees coming into the EU. All profits from this bundle, after required taxes and fees, will be donated to support refugees fleeing from Ukraine.

Montessori creators from around the world have contributed to this bundle of over 100 educational resources. I've added my most popular bilingual continents printables. There is still time to get the bundle, and there is also the opportunity to donate more. Click here to learn more and get the bundle.
